{synonym}

The measuring <electric current> flows along the layer planes. This is the geometry of the <Fe-Cr giant magnetoresistance experiments>. Scattering and current paths through an extended stack require a transport description; treating successive layers as ordinary series <resistors> would not follow from this geometry.
